Set against a languid summer by the sea in Argentina, The Astronaut Lovers is a breezy comedy about Pedro and Maxi, childhood friends reuniting as young men. Pedro, openly gay and charming, finds Maxi's curiosity about "gay shit" and his playful flirtations amusing. However, things shift when Maxi pretends Pedro is his boyfriend to make his ex-girlfriend jealous. This playful ruse causes Pedro to blur the lines between reality and fantasy, leading to unforeseen complications in their evolving relationship. The film explores how their game of pretense impacts their genuine feelings and connection. A sexy and stylish look at sexuality in all forms
